    Paypal Item disputes - Considering Not to Use Postal Services

    I was kidding, paypal is fine with me. Back to the topic, for those who want postal service, get the money through paypal without connection to the sale, just as "money transfer" instead of "payment" for something. If they are in good faith, they'll have no objection. It may take slightly more...

    Paypal Item disputes - Considering Not to Use Postal Services

    The real problem is that, even if you wait 5 weeks, there's no way for you to know if they are scamming you or they never received the watch. This for me would be reason enough to avoid using a shipping method that takes 5 weeks And I agree that Paypal sucks and should be avoided. But it's easy...

    As I said, the orange minute hand is great, not just because it makes a lot of sense in a diver, but also because it will be perfect with an orange isofrane, bonetto or cuda. Actually, the HEV is totally useless for 99% of the buyers. Drilled lugs would be welcome, for safety. Maybe you can...

    this looks good, if you cannot do the minute hand orange, maybe you can have the hour hand square. are there other views available? ils over function?

    Four things I don't like in the original design (all personal opinions of course): 1) orange seconds hand is meaningless, you should have an orange minute hand, which is what is used when diving 2) the hands are ugly, they should be simple, squared 3) bracelet not my style 4) no date The...

    Poll: What do you prefer to wear on a watch?

    it's a 40mm Fortis Flieger with optional sapphire glass. maybe the watch itself is a tad small for me, but having to remove it avery time I take a shower it's just a nightmare, so I never use it.

    Poll: What do you prefer to wear on a watch?

    I wore that strap every summer for 12 or 13 years, the velcro never came loose. It is much faster to don than a zulu, and much faster to adjust, plus is extremely comfortable (no buckle, no retainers). As I said, I like it so much that I bought it also for my ecozilla and just ordered a third...

    What is your favourite Micro Brand (Borealis aside)

    I like Benarus too, although they make looong lugs. If they made shorter lugs, they'd have perfect watches.
